← ScienceWithin a lead-acid battery, which consequence results when high cell temperatures limit ionic mobility?
A)Plate sulfation accelerates markedly.✓
B)Electrolyte concentration profile becomes uniform.
C)Self-discharge reactions minimize completely.
D)Active material conductivity improves greatly.
💡 Explanation
Accelerated plate sulfation arises because limited ionic mobility prevents complete discharge during cycling; therefore, lead sulfate accumulates excessively, rather than converting back to lead and sulfuric acid, leading to battery degradation.
